Forecasts

Avellino (4/7), Pepite De Belle (4/1), La Feline (7/1), Shuil Luas (11/1), Stucker Hill (18/1), Dubai Daisy (20/1), Silver Planeur (50/1), Rosfoyle (50/1), Whispering Waters (50/1), Commander Lady (66/1), Darrens Diamond (80/1), Citizen Al (125/1), Lawlor's Choice (200/1), Nymphhall (200/1), Blustery (300/1)

AVELLINO may well have made a successful chase debut but for a blunder at the last at Fairyhouse 3 weeks ago and she can gain compensation back against her own sex. Pepite de Belle is perhaps the most interesting debutante over fences and the danger.
